The Mystery of Iris

[Team Flare Zakk ( Agatio )]

So has anybody ever wondered the true identity of Iris?

She has to be something important to be condered a special summon.

Also what storyline could Dullahan possibly have with her?

Considering Dullahan is actually a ghost possessing armor, was he once a great and powerful hero that fought and defended this Iris lady?

Is Iris a goddess much like Hylia in the Zelda series?

What is the true identity of Iris?

[Tetsu (Soltur)]

Maybe they were once together? Husband and wife?

[Star Magician]

I always thought of summons as simple fanservice. None of them really have anything to do with the story lol. But they should >.>

[Ivan Strider]

they should! that would be interesting

[Lunya]

Why Simply Iris?
Why not the tales of all of the summons?

[Tetsu (Soltur)]

Quite a few already have stories, being already-existing gods or goddesses. Look at Tiamat. Tiamat was the leader of the older generation of Mesopotamian gods who tried to overthrow the younger generation, lead by Lord Marduk. Marduk wound up killing Tiamat and cutting her up, using her pieces to create the earth. That's Tiamat's story.

Then we have Zeus. Enough said. I'm sure we all know who Zeus is. Same with Charon.

Cybele is another goddess of the Romans. She was the Roman counterpart to the Greek Rhea, just as Jupiter is the Roman counterpart to the Greek Zeus. Cybele was the goddess of fertility.

These are but a few of the examples.

...Wow, sorry for the ancient mythology lesson.

What I want to know is what their roles are in the world of Weyard though.

[Tetsu (Soltur)]

Ah. Well, I can come up with some stories about it, if you so desire.

[Star Magician]

Feel free. I had some ideas of my own, but I've forgotten most of them. >_>

However who is Iris?

I she a goddess that relates to the Golden Sun much like how Din, Nayru and Farore created the Triforce?

It wouldn't surprise me to see something inspired from Zelda.

When I think the name Iris, I can't help but think of that song by the Goo Goo Dolls.

[Tetsu (Soltur)]

I'll come up with an idea for her. Stay posted.

I love the Goo Goo Dolls. *fangirl squee*

They are a good band, but let's attempt to keep this conversation on topic, please. Thank you.

You are looking way too much into this.

She's just a summon, nothing more, nothing less.

[Tetsu (Soltur)]

Yeah, she is just a summon, but wouldn't be kinda cool to put a backstory to her? I'm already working on one.
